Yinson GreenTech introduces SG’s first electric hydrofoil vessel

Its hydrofoil system reduces energy consumption by up to 80%.

Yinson GreenTech unveiled the region's first fully electric hydrofoil vessel, the Hydroglyder, during the Offshore Energy Week (OSEA) 2024 last 19 November.

Developed in collaboration with Lift Ocean and Zeabuz, the vessel is engineered to carry up to 12 passengers at a maximum cruising speed of 25 knots.

Its hydrofoil system lifts the hull above the water, significantly reducing energy consumption by up to 80% and operational costs by 90%.

Alongside the launch, Yinson GreenTech’s marinEV introduced its Marine Digital Platform which enables easy booking, tracking, and reporting.

It has features including route planning and optimisation to provide a comprehensive approach to reducing emissions in short-sea shipping.

Moreover, Yinson GreenTech has secured funding from OCBC which the company said will propel the development and deployment of this technology.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

You're the reader we write for. You're also the person our partners want to reach.

If that sentence describes you — a founder, a C-suite, someone whose attention companies pay good money for — then you already understand why SBR works. We've spent twenty years earning the trust of readers exactly like you. Which is exactly what makes this an interesting place for your company to show up, too.

The ways it can show up are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The right fit depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If your company has something this audience should know about, we'd like to hear what you're working on.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
